For Western blot analyses, cells were scraped, and lysed in buffer A containing 10 mM HEPES, 10 mM NaCl, 1.5 mM MgCl2, 0.25% Tween 20, 1mM dithiothreitol, 100 mg/ml phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, 1 mg/ml leupeptin, and 15 mg/ml aprotinin. Thirty μg of total protein from each sample was then loaded onto 10~15% SDS-polyacrylamide gels, because all sorts of proteins measured in this experiment have a diversity of molecular weights (from 4 ~ 120 kDa). Separated proteins were transferred to nitrocellulose membranes (GE Healthcare Life Sciences, Piscataway, NJ, USA), which were blocked with 5% skim milk (at 4°C overnight), and incubated with antibodies against SIRT1 (Santa Cruz, CA), anti-Aβ (6E10) (Covance, Emeryville, CA), and rabbit polyclonal CTFβ (751–770) (Calbiochem, La Jolla CA. Antibodies against beclin-1, Atg5, and LC3 (rabbit monoclonal LC3A/B, 1:1000) were obtained from Cell Signaling Technology (Danvers, MA). Membranes were reprobed with an anti-β-actin antibody (MP Biomedicals, LLC, Aurora, OH, USA) as an internal control.

Anti-MITOL rabbit polyclonal antibody was described previously14 (link). Anti-APP C-terminal, anti-α-tubulin, and anti-β-actin antibodies were from Sigma. Anti-Aβ (D54D2), anti-synaptophysin, and anti-presenilin 1 (PS1) antibodies were from Cell Signaling. Anti-normal mouse IgG and anti-Tom20 antibodies were from Santa Cruz Biotechnology. The anti-PSD-95 antibody was from Abcam. Anti-Aβ (6E10) was from Covance. Anti-human Aβ E22P (11A1) antibody was from IBL. A11, OC antibodies were from Thermo Fisher Scientific. Anti-Iba1 was from Wako. Bis-ANS was from Cayman Chemical Company. DAPT and Aβ40 were from PEPTIDE INSTITUTE, INC. Aβ40 was dissolved in 0.02% ammonia solution at 300 µM. To obtain seed-free Aβ40 monomers, these Aβ solutions were centrifuged at 200,000 × g for 3 h at 4 °C and the supernatants were collected. Thus, 0.02% ammonia solution was used as a control in the experiments using either Aβ40. ThS was from Sigma. ThT and Rifampicin were from Wako. Rifampicin was used according to a previous report40 (link). Thus, 0.5% low-viscosity carboxyl methylcellulose (purchased from Sigma) was treated as control.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
